Diagnostic table
| Check | Action | Signal |
|---|---|---|
| Review whether the page builds enough emotional and logical belief before it asks for action. | If the buyer has not been given enough proof, process, or next-step clarity, do not recommend more traffic as the first fix. | Message friction and belief gaps |
| Connect campaign or funnel movement with commerce and payment context before judging quality. | If revenue quality or cash timing is missing, avoid turning source movement into a payback conclusion. | Commerce and revenue quality |
| Separate observed inputs from assumptions before treating a scenario as decision evidence. | If the model is sensitive to an assumed number, keep the recommendation as a scenario until the source is verified. | Funnel math and scenario quality |
| Map each cue to the specific behavior it is supposed to support before calling it a conversion improvement. | If the cue purpose is unclear, keep the cue as a hypothesis and do not approve implementation. | Cue purpose fit |
| Check whether the interface makes the next step understandable and makes the buyer feel capable of completing it. | If the buyer may not understand or feel able to complete the action, fix clarity and support before adding persuasion. | Description and efficacy support |
| Review whether trust cues and reinforcement reduce risk after the buyer chooses the next step. | If trust or reinforcement is missing at the risk point, hold conversion claims until the cue is reviewed. | Trust and reinforcement cues |
